SIMPLE BUT EFFECTIVE. Sometimes I stumble across initiatives, campaigns or events that just make sense as a pub operator in solving the problems they face week in and week out: Current situation: 🍸 70% of pub visits now happen Friday & Saturday. 💰 Pub punters are going out less, but spending more when they do. 🎯 74% of pub customers are seeking unique experiences. ⚽ Operators are struggling to keep punters in the pub once the Sunday football has finished as they head home. 🎤 Affording off-peak entertainment is a struggle to keep the P&L balanced. 📢 Pub Quizzes remain as popular as ever to younger audiences. So here's the thing: 🤑 the TalkSPORT pub quiz is cheap (just £35 per pub per week) 🍺 Effective in keeping customers in after the Super Sunday and keeping them drinking (our data says £350 per week) 😄 Attracts new customers and demographics (our best pub has 35 quiz teams every week) 🎤 No prep or DJ/customer host required (let our TalkSPORT radio hosts do that for you) ▶ Just subscribe, plug-in, press play and off you go. Sounds too good to be true right? Well drop Christopher Hart a line and have a chat about adding the TalkSPORT pub quiz to your weekly events line up. #hospitality #pubquiz #Sundays #sales

World Mental Health Day, October 10th 💙 Years ago, I was diagnosed with anxiety, and it’s been a roller coaster journey since. Despite implementing healthy strategies, I still experience panic attacks and struggle at times. Mental health is a long battle, but it’s crucial to keep pushing forward, talking openly, and using the tools we have to minimize stress. If you’re struggling, know that you’re not alone—I’m always here to talk and offer advice. As a qualified mental health responder, I understand the toll it can take. While we might not always have the right tools, with the right mindset, we can work toward mental stability together. 💪 #MentalHealthMatters #KeepTalking #YouAreNotAlone #AndysMansClub #mentalhealth

At an under tack show held by Ocala Breeders’ Sales (OBS) in Ocala, Florida, a reckless sprint event turned deadly: A horse was killed by track staff after a collision, and a jockey lay motionless on the ground. Under tack shows don’t have to be fatal. Deadly sprints used to drive up selling prices of young horses at these shows are pointless. They’re not even good indicators of performance for future races. When they don’t kill the horses, these events (and the training leading up to them) often leave the animals with permanent injuries. Thankfully, PETA has a plan that would stop most of the carnage at under tack shows without significantly affecting their operation. The proposed format would demonstrate juvenile horses’ aptitude for real races instead of dangerous, breakneck sprints that they will never perform again. Please, take a moment to defend young horses who are used for racing by indicating your support for PETA’s proposal. https://lnkd.in/gkc7Vtjx #NotOursToUse #AnimalRights #AnimalWelfare #AnimalSafety #NotYourEntertainment #endspeciesism #activism #activist #advocate #advocacy #animaljustice #animalliberationnow #AnimalRightsActivist #Horses #EndHorseRacing #AnimalsUsedforEntertainment

TLDR: Flavor Flav is setting a new standard and it’s giving us all the feels. In sports, we see women working their asses off to excel in their games. They make the most of every opportunity and still face incredible challenges when trying to reach the pinnacle - an olympic medal. Maggie Steffens recently highlighted another important issue: the lack of financial support for women in sports after college. These athletes have worked tirelessly to become the best, yet they face significant challenges supporting themselves while training to represent our country. Flavor Flav is not only bringing incredible energy to women’s water polo (YESSSS) but he’s also personally financially backing the US Women's Water Polo Team. He swam up to the net (see what I did there) in a game-changing way. I think a lot can be taken from Flavor Flav’s gesture. In our startup world, I have a lot of conversations about our CAPSULE internship program. Not only because it's been incredibly impactful to the company, but also because we're extremely passionate about doing our part to create opportunities and education for women in tech. As a female-founded technical company, Kelsey Pedersen and I were passionate about prioritizing opening doors for young women across the country and demystifying both the functional roles and the ‘how this is built’ of a technical startup. The sad reality is there just aren't a ton of opportunities for young women to be exposed to technical startups early on. We knew we wanted to be able to show them how engineering, product development, and business operate behind the scenes. Even as a small team, we're determined to make a difference. Today we have 10 women across the country that we’re bringing along on our startup ride and we’re working hard to scale to 200. We’re channeling our Flavor Flav energy every day and encourage you to as well. Any questions about how we’ve made this happen, please dm me. We’re here to help support young entrepreneurs as much as we possibly can. #StartupJourney #CommunitySupport #womenintech #femalefounders #FlavorFlav #USAWaterPolo

Pop Culture Friday! Yeah boyeeeeee! That's what I'm talking about! Flavor Flav, co-founder of the hip hops group Public Enemy, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, and "girl dad" is famously now the sponsor of the US women's water polo team. He's had a ton of ups and downs, and with the support of his network, made pivots to earn a living being a hype man for different projects. Supporting the water polo team is another example of him leveraging his profile and talents. When asked why he wore a clock: "The reason why I wear this clock is because, you know, time is the most important element, and when we stop, time keeps going." Seeing his joy now, he is enjoying living in the moment. I'm looking forward to seeing his next pivot. Use the DANO method to make your pivots and create a sustainable career. #career #olympics #pivot #waterpolo #flavorflav #publicenemy #networking

Timeless legends come very rarely. But when they do, they inspire countless generations, for a long time to come. There is a simplicity and universality in their values, which is very endearing to the society. At SRT Sports, we have the honour of representing Sachin Tendulkar. Our endeavour is simple - to be the bridge and connect like-minded partners with Sachin Tendulkar. Link to the article: https://lnkd.in/d_YTnSVS
